Flour, eggs, sugar, honey, oil, etc.
First, steam the flour, then mix it with sugar, honey, and flower petals as the filling. Zhang Xiuyuan mixes flour, water and lard, kneads it into dough, and divides it into equal parts as puff pastry. Then he makes oil skin, wraps the puff pastry with the oil skin, rolls it into skin with a rolling pin, rolls it up, and divides it into dough. The mixed filling is wrapped in the oil skin and kneaded into a ball.
Brush the egg liquid on the dough, covering it with a golden layer, and the prototype of the flower cake is completed.
Next it needs to be baked.
There were no ovens in ancient times, but fortunately there were ovens, which were rather bulky and difficult to control the temperature.
There happened to be a family in Zhaojia Village who knew how to make an oven, and she had already ordered one.
In order to make the flower cakes more beautiful, Zhao Chuchu went to the village carpenter's house and asked them to carve some beautiful pattern models.
"Brother Yuan, you take a break. I'll take care of the oven." Zhao Chuchu put about twenty doughs on the oven to bake.
Although she is not good at cooking, she can still bake.
Because I wasn't sure if it would taste good, I didn't make too many, and only considered about twenty of them as a trial.
Brother Yuan did not refuse.
Zhang Xiuyuan came out of the kitchen and heard a knock on the door outside the yard, so he opened the door.
Outside the door, there was a carriage parked. Apart from the coachman, there was only the person standing in front of him.
A boy of about the same age as him was wearing a nice pink outfit.
Not everyone can pull off pink clothes, let alone men. If they are not suitable, they will only look vulgar when worn.
But Zhang Xiuyuan felt that the boy in front of him was most suitable for this pink color.
He has fair skin, a delicate face, cute eyebrows and eyes, and a lively look. His lips are as pink and tender as peach blossoms. It can be said that his face is as red as the peach blossoms.
When Zhang Xiuyuan looked at the person in front of him, Liang'er also looked at him with a critical eye.
Liang'er felt that the man in front of him should be the husband of Zhao Chuchu, the unfaithful girl. He wanted to see how this man was better than Brother Qing.
He originally thought that the country people who farmed should be thin and dark, but the person in front of him was not like that.
He had a plain face without any makeup. Although his skin was not as white as cream, it was fair and clean. His eyebrows were like distant ink, his eyes were like stars, his nose was high and straight, and his lips were naturally red without any makeup.
He had a handsome face with beautiful features. He stood alone. Even though he was dressed simply, he looked like a person walking out of a painting, with a clear and calm temperament from the inside out.
If Qing'er is the charming and fascinating red spider lily, then the person in front of me is like the orchid in the valley or the snow lotus on the Tianshan Mountains.
They both have their own beauty, but Qing'er has fallen into the mortal world after all. If you really compare them, Qing'er seems a bit more vulgar in front of the person in front of her.
"Excuse me, who are you?" Yuan Ge'er spoke, his voice clear and bright, like a mountain spring.
Liang'er came to his senses, put away his usual playfulness, and became more mature like a young man.
"You are Zhao Chuchu's husband, right? I am Liang'er from Chunmanyuan."
Spring is in the garden, Liang'er! ?
Zhang Xiuyuan felt that it sounded familiar, but he couldn't remember where it was.
Seeing that he remained silent, Liang Er did not shy away from the question and frankly reminded him, "Chun Man Yuan is a small mansion."
Zhang Xiuyuan suddenly understood.
Before, when he went to the county town to sell vegetables, he would often mention Chunmanyuan when someone mentioned it.
He heard that his wife used to drink wine and dine in Chunman Garden and liked the courtesan named Qing'er.
He listened with one extra ear without realizing it.
